P7 enjoyed a residential trip to Scaladale with dinner out at the Harris Hotel. The activities were archery, abseiling and coasteering. It was a brilliant night with lots of new experiences and a great way to celebrate the end of our primary school years!

WIIGA Sports in Stornoway
The Primary team did well and participated whole heartedly in the WIIGA sports in Stornoway. They were competing a large section of other primaries with more than 51 children, and held their own! The boys’ team came third in their relay, whilst the girls came fourth by a whisker! Eilidh won the 100m competition in a very exciting finish!
Scottish Opera P5-7EM
We had a real treat today when we had a visit from the Scottish Opera. They came in a lorry which looked pretty standard from outside, however, once we stepped inside we were transported to the Opera Theatre in Glasgow, there was even a chandelier! We watched and listened to an abridged version of HMS Pinofore and were glad that the narrator explained the story to us! There was only a guitar and a cello, but it was incredible how it sounded like an entire orchestra. The singers had such an amazing talent, we were blown away!
P5-7EM Trip to Geocrab Hatchery for DYW topic
P5-7EM enjoyed an excellent, informative visit to the Scottish Seafarms hatchery at Geocrab today. Many thanks to Donald and Kenny for showing us round and taking the time to explain their roles. It really made the pupils consider the skills, qualities and school subjects which would be useful if they were to pursue one of the many career options in fish farming. A great addition to our Developing the Young Workforce topic!!
P5-7EM Developing Young Workforce topic – Buzz test
We have all taken the Buzz test. Based on work by Carl Jung and Myers-Briggs, the Buzz quiz can prove a useful starting point when thinking about your career. As well as finding out what sort of jobs are popular with your personality type, the quiz can help you explore your temperament, learning styles, relationships and stress management. There are sixteen possible results, and each personality type is associated with an animal. So why not take the quiz and find out today if you’re a seal or a seahorse? We had 12 of the 16 represented in our class!
